I really thought those two may have gone the distance. Sad

Daily Mail Link warning in case that offends

Always thought Richie was gay TBH, not that it matters.

Sparklingbrook · 08/03/2016 10:30

I do hate in when slebs split up WBD, I want a happy ending dammit!

Maybe Ritchie can get together with Ellie Goulding. Grin

See I think Ellie could do better than Ritchie, I thought I heard a rumour she was back with Dougie (again?).

It's a shame for Ritchie and Natasha as they've got a baby together, but it's still not a surprise.

Sparklingbrook · 08/03/2016 10:47

I still think Ellie should be with Greg James. I have no idea what happened there.

WBDmadness · 08/03/2016 10:56

I can't believe I'm admitting this - but I thought the same about Ellie and Greg! No-one in RL would know what the hell I was on about.

Sparklingbrook · 08/03/2016 11:04

WBD I am the same. Can imagine DH's face if i said 'why did EG and GJ split up do you think?'. One minute it was all roses, the next it was over, the only thing EG said was that it was 'unexpected'. Confused

Myfanwyprice · 08/03/2016 11:13

I think I read that Ellie and dougie are back together!

Dolly80 · 08/03/2016 11:15

I didn't share your optimism about Natasha & Ritchie Sparkling...it is convenient OK were on hand to quickly pick up 'her side' of the story though Hmm

But, EG & GJ were a pair I thought seemed suited and happy. I was surprised when they split (I spend too much time reading about slebs!) I wonder what happened? Didn't she allegedly go on to have a fling with Ed Sheerhan (who then wrote about it in a song?) Or did I imagine that?

Sparklingbrook · 08/03/2016 11:15

Are they? I thought they split around Christmas, got back together but split again recently?
But TBF I don't think either of them have actually confirmed or denied any of it, it's all the DM.

I always thought the Natasha and Richie pairing was a bit odd. He seemed like a little boy in photos with her.
She's either verrrry high maintenance or gets bored easily. Four kids by four dads though - nightmare on Christmas Day, surely.

Shutthatdoor · 08/03/2016 11:21

Ritchie and Billie 4eva

Gobbolinothewitchscat · 08/03/2016 11:23

I read that article whilst feeding the baby and immediately thought of you, sparkling Grin

ThisCakeFilledIsle · 08/03/2016 11:26

You have a touching lack of cynicism OP. Hold onto that..

Sparklingbrook · 08/03/2016 11:26

Grin Gobbolino I am always there for the high brow stuff.

Dolly, she went on to date Skrillex and an actor bloke, there were rumours her and ES had a thing. ES wrote a song about it and she wrote one back at him. All a bit Hmm

Thanks Cake, there's nothing wrong with a bit of optimism where sleb relationships are concerned. Grin

SantasLittleMonkeyButler · 08/03/2016 11:27

Celebs move on so bloody quickly don't they? One minute they're gushing about their new husband/wife being their "soulmate" and the next thing you know, they're getting divorced and shacking up with their next "soulmate".

No wonder the relationships don't last - they're permanently on the rebound! Confused

Some people (Kerry, I'm looking at you) could do with a decent pause between marriages.

Dolly80 · 08/03/2016 11:28

At least I didn't imagine it Grin

Can you imagine having songs written about your relationship thanking my lucky stars I've never dated anyone famous or musically gifted!

Sparklingbrook · 08/03/2016 11:29

They never seem to fall in lurve with the plumber down the road do they? OK! would not like that.

OP posts:
WBDmadness · 08/03/2016 11:30

See I never got Ellie with the Skrillex bloke - don't get me wrong, I like his music but it was straight after Greg, and she did seem to be rebelling against Greg's nice bloke image, by dating Skrillex, who is all cool and edgy. That's when she shaved half her head and had the comb over period.

I believe her and Ed had a fling, which I get, but I'd probably dump ES for dougie too, as Dougie is just so pretty. Even though Dougie would be prettier than me.

Actually scrap that - I'd never get a chance with either Dougie or Ed.

WBDmadness · 08/03/2016 11:32

Ritchie and Billie 4eva? Nah she's much better off with that Fox actor.

Although in my head Billie would still make the perfect wife for David Tennant.

Even though I like David Tennants RL wife.

Dolly80 · 08/03/2016 11:33

I forgot about Ritchie & Billie. I always forget she was with Chris Evans too (that seems so random now)

Sparklingbrook · 08/03/2016 11:34

I was quite upset when Billie and Chris Evans split up. Sad Grin

If i had the choice out of any of them mentioned-Greg James. All day long.

dontcryitsonlyajoke · 08/03/2016 14:31

Ritchie and Billie 4eva! Yes!

He always looked so uncomfortable in photos with Natasha. I am surprised they lasted this long.

She seems like a nightmare: baby with bloke 1, baby with bloke 2, got back with bloke 1 (I think I'm the only person with sufficient in-depth sleb knowledge to remember this), then married bloke 3. Baby with bloke 3, divorce then straight onto baby with bloke 4. Get engaged and talk only about the ring. Then split up and talk to OK.

And she's still got another decade to have more babies...

She has the cheek in that article (yes, I read it, I cannot stop myself) to say she puts her children first (while yanking them out of school to have their photos taken for a bloody magazine article about her love life). I will tolerate a lot from minor slebs but arsing around having many babies with many partners pisses me right off (i went right off Jude Law, pretty as he is, for the same reason)

Billie was a much saner girl, Ritchie! But you lost her I'm afraid. And got Natasha, for life now you have a baby. Where did it all go wrong?

In other news Ellie Goulding and Greg James??? I missed that! Oh they would have been lovely!

WBDmadness · 08/03/2016 14:38

They were lovely dont cry but no-one knows why they split, and theres a couple of us that think they should get back together. They seemed like a lovely couple.

WBDmadness · 08/03/2016 14:38

Oops - I meant Ellie and James not Natasha and Ritchie!
